I agree that such record keeping is a terrific idea. History is always valuable to record and to remember. That alone makes this a good idea.

Would you say that such a requirement for the king as outlined in my previous posts would lessen or perhaps eliminate the need for there to be a method for the king's removal?

I ask because if a king is going to be so wicked that he ignores such directives, he's probably going to ignore any sort removal system for such a wicked king, and have those conspiring against him removed or perhaps killed.

How could it?

The king can lie and even if he didn't, if he can't ever be removed from the throne, why would he care whether it's required or not? Maybe he decides just to blow off writing any records of any kind. Who's going to do anything about it?

Well, he would be able to ignore the removal system. The removal system would have to have some sort of teeth to it or it would be useless. The flow of authority throughout the government would have to be set up in such a way that both the military and police forces would enforce the law, not the king's whims and if the king was lawfully removed then they would enforce that ruling just like they'd enforce any other law.
